Hall de Paris

After the floods, the city of Paris financed the construction of this monument, which houses the Chasselas market and is now a venue for performances. On its pediment is written ‘Don de la ville de Paris 1930’ (Gift from the city of Paris 1930). The construction incorporates both classical elements such as Tuscan columns at the corners and brick, as well as more modern materials such as metal, glass and concrete. Geometric decorations highlight the bunches of grapes on the exterior walls, a reference to the building's original function.
